Review of the Hanley Economic Building Society, Mortgages:

So helpful!

Our experience mainly surrounds Lana Beech at The Hanley and her handling of our mortgage application. We want to thank Lana for all her assistance in this matter. The process was made all the simpler for your involvement. I think that sometimes people forget - in this age of faceless online application processes - that it’s often the people that make these experiences better, supported by good IT; not the other way around. I’m sure that the bosses already know it, but you’re an absolute credit to the company. Thank you. Lee & Jen Reviewed on: 2nd July 2019

Reply from Hanley Economic Building Society Hi Lee, thank you so much for your glowing review, it's wonderful to hear and has been passed onto Lana. Response date: 13th February 2020

Professional and outstanding service

The service from the initial contact through to the mortgage completion was outstanding. Jane, the mortgage advisor was very professional, listened to us and showed us the possible mortgage options. There was no pressure and it was clear that Jane wanted us to make a decision that was right for us. Reviewed on: 8th April 2025

At last! A provider that understands my needs.

Over the past 2 years I have spend countless hours exploring various options for Equity Release. While I have adequate funds invested in my pension I could show little income to providers because I have been financially sensible saving into and then living off my ISA investments. The Hanley was the only provider I could find that was savvy enough to realise that people with solid investments should be able to use those investments as evidence of income potential and therefore allow a lifetime interest only mortgage product to be offered Reviewed on: 27th March 2025

Very helpful.

Jane was great - very helpful. I've heard a lot of horror stories on self build mortgage companies but Jane couldn't have been more helpful. I'm sure I was a nightmare repeatedly asking the same questions but clarification was always provided. Reviewed on: 26th March 2025
